There are many other less well known attractions, such as the perched villages of Eze and Gourdon, the perfumeries of Grasse and the glass blowers of Biot. The Riviera has been the inspiration for many well-known artists such as Picasso and many of their works are on display in local museums and art galleries.
One big problem that the Riviera faces is its popularity. During the summer months (July/August particularly) the Riviera is a crowded mess – particularly on the strip of land between the A8 Autoroute and the coast – and events such as the Film Festival drive up the prices of just about everything. On the other hand even in August the lesser known attractions such as the Gorge du Loup and Gourdon are far less chaotic.
